The Time Extensions tool performs a service similar to the Price-Time Squaring tool excepting that only the horizontal axis, or time, is taken into account. With the Static version of this display, the time frames are contiguous, that being, the extensions are calculated from the termination point of the range descriptor.
Referring to the graphic, we can take either a major or minor market movement and connect a line between the low and the high of the wave (This applies to both bull and bear market moves). This gives us a time range. As can be seen on the graphic, the Time Extension tool will divide this range into the user specified percentages ( see properties ). The greater the time frame and of a specific move the greater significance can be applied to each future time range described. |

Version 5 introduces the concept of Highlights. This allows the user to define translucent colored regions between user defined regions as can be seen in the image above. The highlights are independent of the Extension levels, allowing the display to show both Extension levels and Highlights simultaneously, or just the highlighted regions. |
